Rationale: Hè shī fruit, Bīng láng, Kǔ liàn pí, Wú yí, Shǐ jūn zǐ, and Mǎ bó kill worms, while Xuán míng fěn and Dà huáng are offensive precipitants that help the works to pass out through the stool. The large number of worm-killing agents ensures that the formula is effective for a broad range of worms.
